    But, after my 3rd session (I used it no more than 1 or 2 times a week) I started experiencing what you wrote. My scalp became red and sore.

    Then I realized that I got a little too 'enthusiastic' using it, and on the 3rd session I left it acting on the scalp a little too long before rinsing it.
    What I think I had developed is the so-called 'keto burn'.

    So, my advice is : let the scalp calm down for at least a week, not using nizoral, then restart using it BUT rinse it out after about 3 minutes (maybe 5 if you use the 1%).


    By the way, during the cycle I was talking about I initially noticed that I was shedding a lot of miniaturized hair ( I'm talking about the first 2 sessions or so ), then after that my overall shedding decreased drammatically.

    I think Nizoral should be used like a medication and not so much as an actual 'washing' shampoo.
    Now I just use it on my thinning zone (crown and top), because there's no need on the sides and ends up drying my scalp skin a lot.
